Blame by Nicole Trope

Two families devastated and broken by an accident... but was it really an accident?

"She really would like to know if there is any point in her continuing to exist, continuing to feed and dress herself, or even get out of bed in the mornings. She doesn't think she has ever looked this thin and this old. At a certain point, she seems to have crossed a boundary between waif-like and haggard."

This is the story of Anna, Maya and Caro, how their problems where so big they wouldn't control their life and how they try to cope with them.

This book will be with me for a long time, I felt a strong connection with Anna and Caro that I have never felt with any other book.

Their story is sad, really sad, Anna has an autistic daughter, Maya, how Anna can get up every day knowing that her daughter will never want her touch or talk about her day has to be really difficult, she loves her, but she doesn't now how to connect with her.

Caro, she had 6 spontaneous abortions, the last one with 5 months pregnant, a boy... Who hasn't been scared during the pregnancy of the spontaneous abortions? Imagine 6!

We will learn the story of Caro and Anna with the police interviews, from the day they meet till Maya's accident. Step by step we will understand their decisions and thoughts till the sadly moment where everything will change...

I loved this book, I cried and cheer up with Anna and Caro stories, and I didn't want to finish the book, I wanted to know more about them!

I highly recommend this book, the story is so powerful and real that you will feel their emotions in your own skin.
